Beer In Ads #2791: Another Genesee Moment

October 12, 2018 By Jay Brooks


Friday’s ad is for Genesee Beer, which was founded in Rochester, New York, originally along the Genesee River, but in 1878 they moved up into Rochester proper. Their Genesee Cream Ale, in the simple green can, was one of our go-to beers when I was in high school. Since 2009, the brewery has been part of North American Breweries. This ad, from 1965, features a couple raking leaves. Or perhaps they’re done. They are smiling and are holding beer cans in their hands.
